At this dealership, Lexus Santa Monica, car salesmen just

At this dealership, Lexus Santa Monica, car salesmen just want to lead customers to their dealership for a test drive, to play with the price if the customer is unclear about the price or has a bad credit score. they don't really want to sell the car properly if you ask for a price and really want to buy it. dealing with them is a waste of time. 🥹

We met a very helpful internet sales rep named Maria,

We met a very helpful internet sales rep named Maria, whose communication skills set her apart from the other Lexus dealerships. She was lovely and knowledgeable in person. We were paying cash and agreed on a price quickly-our only concern was how many hours it took to finalize the deal with so many attempts to sell us on maintanence packages.

BUYER BEWARE!

BUYER BEWARE!!! All the things you hear about and hope don’t happen when working with dealerships happened when buying my Lexus from Lexus Santa Monica dealership. Given lots of attention and calls when considering purchase then, once paperwork is signed, zero follow up. Customer service is disappointing, felt sucker punched in gut having just paid a huge amount for my car, and overall incredibly frustrating experience. Bought brand new 2024RX+ in first week of May, 2024. Paid full price plus additional $3k dealership required paint and interior protection options. Signed paperwork with 4 miles on it. Had ahipped to Oregon and arrived with 56 miles on it and a door ding type of dent on front passenger side. Transport driver provided pic of car with dent from pick up at dealership. I called immediately and spoke to Naz the sales person who reassured me that they would take care of it. No contact from them for 6 weeks! I called and left messages, tried to contact managers by phone and email…no response. 2 months in I call, Naz answers. Told to get estimate and let them now how much and they will take care of it. I do that. EST is $208. Again radio silence! Another month goes by and I get Naz on phone. She says that her manager won’t let them pay for the whole amount. WHAT!!! That they will pay for half of the amount and I will need to file a report with the transit company so that they learn to be more responsible when picking up car and doing inspection. 😳 😡 as if I haven’t been patient enough or put in enough effort getting them to do anything!!! So not worth the frustration! EXTREMELY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE….especially by MANAGERS!!! To this day, I have received $0 reimbursement. While I do love my Lexus, and I swear by our LEXUS Dealership in Eugene, I would not work with Santa Monica Lexus again.

Enrique Carvajal was the most amazing sales consultive I have ever had the pleaser to deal with. Enrique treats you like he's selling a car to his Mother. There was not a question he could not answer. Took as much time as I needed and I never felt like I was rusher or pressured. Do yourself a gigantic favor and go and see him first, there will not be a need to go anywhere else. Santa Monica Lexus should thank their lucky stars he is in their dealership and not one of their competitors.

This dealership is awful. My car’s paint was damaged by Lexus Santa Monica during a service. They were forced to repair it due to their negligence. They did a botched job! The area that was “repaired” is now corroding and the paint has come off. They will not take responsibility and fix their mistake. Really disappointed with the customer service, quality of maintenance, repair and service! It is not up to luxury car standards and an embarrassment to the Lexus name.

Santa Monica Lexus is a great place to get your new Lexus. This is my third Lexus and I have to say, they really KNOW what they are doing and try their best to get you a great deal. Enrique Carvajal went out of his way to get me exactly the color I wanted inside and out. Thank you Enrique. I recommend him highly to anyone looking to purchase a new Lexus! Cindy G.
